Students make their way to Keplero's high school in Rome, Thursday, March 11, 2010. The high school has incurred the ire of the Catholic Church after its decision to install condom-vending machines for students. Cardinal Agostino Vallini, the pope's vicar for Rome, has criticized the decision as trivializing sex, while the Italian bishops' newspaper said Thursday, March 11, 2010 that sex was being reduced to 'mere physical exercise.' The Keplero high school said it would go ahead with its plan to install six vending machines as part of its efforts to educate students in sexuality and HIV protection. The Vatican opposes artificial contraception. (AP Photo/Gregorio Borgia)AP - The decision by a Rome high school to install condom vending machines has set off a storm in Italy, with the Catholic Church charging the move will encourage young people to have sex and Rome's mayor saying it sends the wrong message.
